I discovered this band on Last.Fm as a similiar artist to Brighton based band Centurion and decided to check them out.Suicide Silence are a brutal hardcore/death metal band from California are relatively unknown in the scene at the moment but with an album like "The Cleansing" they are sure to be welcomed with open arms.
Its surreal to imagine an album as unrelentingly severe as this being a debut.
It opens with the ambient track "Revelations" then blasts straight into "Unanswered" which is a hard hitting riot of a track. For the untrained ear the album may sound all the same but with tracks like "The fallen" and "Girl Of Glass" you can definitely see how surprisingly developed these lads are. Blissfully chunky and indulgently dark, Suicide Silence are 0ffering up seismic slabs of brain pumping riffs, fretboard agro and bile soaked breakdowns. The cleansing is nothing amazingly special but its teeth are still sharp enough to deliver a satisfying bite.
Also try Suicide Silence's self titled E.P
For Fans Of: As Blood Runs Black, Centurion and Suffocation.
8/10
